Roasted Mushroom Barley Risotto is one of those cozy, fall dishes that takes very little effort but has a huge payoff in flavor. And even though this dish and dishes like this are typically called “risotto” it’s made with barley rather than rice. Call me Miss Obvious, lol! 🙂
Salad with Smoky Sheet Tray Roasted Vegetables & Barley
A bit of cooked Barley was the “by-product” of my Healthy Lemon Ginger Barley Water recipe awhile back. Well, if you know me, you know I try to waste nothing, and sure didn’t want to waste a morsel of wonderful, chewy, nutty Barley. (I love it, and so should you, btw! It’s really good for you!) And so I went on a quest and that quest ended in this Salad with Smoky Sheet Tray Roasted Vegetables & Barley. It’s a lot to use a cup of Barley, huh?!
Healthy Lemon Ginger Barley Water
Have you ever had Barley Water? It’s been made for centuries and extolled for all its health benefits, so I thought it was high time I put a recipe out for my Healthy Lemon Ginger Barley Water.
It turns out that Barley Water isn’t just a Scottish tradition but has been made since ancient times and has been shared by many cultures.
Instant Pot Beef Barley Soup
Fall comes, the leaves turn, and at that first temperature drop, don’t we all start to crave comfort food? A really good Beef Barley Soup ranks high on my list. But ranking even higher is this quicker, very doable (thanks to the Instant Pot), Instant Pot Beef Barley Soup.
Southwestern Protein Mix
Awhile back, I posted a recipe for Cumin Dusted Pork Chops and mentioned this Southwestern Protein Mix. A wonderful medley of corn, bell peppers, black beans and barley, this flavorful dish would be a fantastic side for any number of meals.
